Hit a dear :(
Two weeks ago heading back to Sarnia, a small deer bolted out on the highway and clipped my passenger side front end... Luckily my fiancé and I are ok and the damage appears minimal... She drove perfectly for about 30-40km before dying... No idea why it cut off, but in leaning towards the external crank sensor because it's on that side and I can still smell fuel when it's cranking. Gonna do an actual fuel pressure check at the rail to verify its holding good pressure.
Here's some pics:

Looks like I won't be seeing the track this year

Gonna rebuild for sure. 5 speed is still on the table, but it might have to be pushed back until the ho runs again and is all fixed up. A parts car definitely would have been awesome lol.
I have no idea what caused the car to cut off that night... Just tried starting her up and it backfired though the intake(I think). Had some smoke coming out of the intake.. Im guessing it's flooded with gas. Fuel pressure is reading a steady 50 PSI and coil packs seem to be arcing.
I just pulled the spark plugs(little more smoke coming out) and cranked it for a 10 seconds to try to get the gasoline out. Gonna leave it over night and hope most of the fuel evaporates. I tried scanning for codes and I have nothing to go on at this point unfortunately.

Definitely not. Too much time and effort put into making her quick and I didn't even get to do one 1/4 mile pass.

For sure. You can rebuild a car, the human body not so much

Good luck with rebuild......however if you claim on insurance and you have 2-3K worth of damage the insurance will total it. This what bdyman was trying say.

Sorry bout the car, but I've seen worse for sure. Glad to hear that you're all okay. At least you didn't go all out on a telephone pole like papa did.

Anyways, thanks for the opinion bdyman. It's just an Alero to everyone else, but to me it's my Alero. My Alero that I put in a lot of time and effort into.. I know the price to continue to play, I'm still gonna fix it. It's not gonna happen over night and it may take a year or two, but it will see the road again. I've seen worse put back onto the road.
